Kilby Block Party has announced the first wave of its 2027 lineup, led by Deftones, the Strokes and Jungle. The festival returns to Utah State Fairpark in Salt Lake City on May 14–16.
Fontaines D.C., Slayyyter, Lil Yachty, Idles, Spoon, Weyes Blood, Hot Chip, Kim Gordon and Julien Baker are among the announced performers. Two Door Cinema Club are billed to play Tourist History, while Whitney will mark ten years of Light Upon the Lake with a dedicated set.
The October 28 announcement leaves additional artist slots to be revealed. Three-day passes went into general sale October 29. Kilby began as a celebration of the local all-ages venue Kilby Court and has expanded into a festival drawing visitors from beyond Utah, while retaining that connection to the city’s independent music community.
